Comic Actor, John Okafor who is fondly known as Mr. Ibu revealed he is supporting Atiku Abubakar and not Bola Tinubu for the 2023 Presidential Election.
In a video that went viral, the comic actor was seen alongside other Nollywood actors ‘pledging alliance’ to the APC leader.
However, in a twist of event, the actor took to his verified Instagram page to make a video to clear the air.
He said:
“I do not know why this thing is going on like this.”
Part of his speech in the video stated,
“People approached me about Tinubu’s involvement to contest for the next president of Nigeria. I am a completely independent person; in the area that I perform, I am a comedian, musician and actor. Anything that has to do with anybody, people come to me and I address me in that direction. I know what to do.
“I do not know why this thing is going on like this. From time, I will never run sideways. It has been me and Atiku all this while, he has taken me places. If Atiku is running for president, certainly, because he has done a lot of things for me; there was a time he changed my house. He is like a father to me. He is contesting for president under PDP, certainly, I will be working for him. Atiku is my candidate.”
